learning it after years of java and I hate it. its yucky. I thought it would be more like C but its not its got a bunch of weird poo poo

just use the underlying C functions then if it bothers you that much. ObjC is like a tiny little layer on top of C.

i'll be honest if python's standard library wasn't such a loving disorganised mess I'd probably use python more

yes let's mix every identifier capitalisation style ever. also let's have "pickle" and "cpickle" and the only difference between the two is that the second has a faster(?) underlying implementation. ok chief.

also the GIL is frankly shameful.

basically what i'm saying is that i'm a mong

the GIL isn't part of the standard library, it's an implementation detail of c-python. python 3 also does a lot to clean up the std lib, which is a good thing.

My version control software works like this.

Your version control software works like that.

Git/hg are fine if you need the distributed features. However, it's not like svn is somehow garbage for olds. My 9-5 is a PBS/NPR affiliate (re: donation funded!) and we have solid enough infrastructure for svn. If the server went down, which it never has, I would just, I don't know, not commit my changes until it cam back up?

Not every development team is geographically and time separated, which IMO are e best factors for choosing something like Git or hg.

RoR is a great prototyping environment, and there's easy (relatively easy) paths to porting it to something more performant.

So the idea that you just want to get your poo poo up and functional asap and gently caress scaling until it actually becomes an issue is a perfectly reasonable choice in some circumstances.

no rotor, I need to handle 1,000,000 hits a day by the third week. This will be a billion dollar a year business in two years.*

it was more data warehousing and updated once a day/once a week, and not constant writes, so i dunno

data warehousing is pro, and it's much smarter to have your application & db design made for performance/scaling or whatever you need, and have a real data warehouse for reporting.

mostly people who care about the impact of garbage collection, no matter how often that belief is misguided.

really, unless you're power constrained or resource constrained or real time, gc is a no-brainer. and gc is not the be and end all of automatic memory management either.

yeah it's a good thing mobile phones aren't power or resource constrained and therefor excellent candidates for garbage collection.

If you work hard at being clear in your naming, you�ll also rarely need to write comments for the code. Comments are generally only needed when you failed to be clear enough in naming. Treat them as a code smell.

comments are great for introducing new developers to a code base, and can make turning private objects into public apis easier.

yeah you really should have 100% test coverage on large p-lang projects. that's it, that's the whole trick.

luckily even the worst p-lang mock utils i've used are tons better than anything i've found for java. it's not like writing tests in p-langs is hard.

jetbrains pycharm is actually pretty good

jetbrains stuff is insanely good. the analysis tools and type inferencing in pycharm is awesome.
